🧐 2025 Focus?

My brother and his wife were telling me their resolutions a couple of days ago and I always find it curious how different resolutions are for people with a 9-5 job vs people who are self-employed (or trying to be).

Even the language is different.

With the non-day job folks, it’s not really resolutions but more about goals and focuses for the new year.

And they aren’t things like ‘get better at making eggs’ or ‘get to the gym more.’ 😳

That got me curious about what peeps are gonna be focusing on in the new year….so I asked in my Skool community.

But first, just wanna remind you (in case you missed it on the 25th) my Christmas gift to you - I’ve lowered the cost to my private Skool community to $1.00. Join here.

I’ll likely leave it at this price through the end of the year.

Some Great Ideas

So, before I share what I’m seeing from people in my Skool community, I do want to point out what a former niche siter shared on Twitter today.

Keith is going all in on YouTube and he’s going to be sharing that journey.

If you’re already on his email list, then you’ll get the updates. If not, click that tweet image above to get the link in the first reply.

Getting back to my Faceless YouTube channels is definitely on my list as well.

Anyways, I asked in my community and here’s some of the answers:

• KDP ebooks

• niche newsletters

• Etsy

It’s interesting that no one said anything about the Facebook Bonus Program or even using Pinterest to grow traffic to a site running display ads. Seems like the echo chamber I’m in on Twitter is full of people focused on those two things.

Well, that and the Amazon Influencer Program.

What about you?

Coming up…

I’ll be doing a year-end look at all the different things I’ve done online to make money. I’ll also be looking forward and discussing what I’ll be spending my time working on in the new year.

Stay awesome,

Shawna
